I added a few extra handles and we will choose the team the day-of or just use whoever shows up if that's alright. We wanted to do 2 teams, but didn't have quite enough that could make it. Also, I didn't put the profession down of each player because everyone has multiple professions and what they play will be determined by who shows up and the composition of the team.
ahilles7, I was wondering if we have 10 people show up would it be possible to enter two teams, or are we limited to the single team that I signed up. Chances are that 10 people won't show up, and I won't be there myself, but I want to be able to tell the fleet what to expect.
P.S. I have a small suggestion for the wording of your rule "-Scramble Sensors with no Seggis doff"
Since there are more doffs that have this ability than ones that are just named Seggis, I'd suggest changing the wording to "-No doffs that increase cooldowns when Scramble Sensors is used." That way it leaves less room for interpretation.
I know it may be a bit late to change rules, but another little thing I noticed is that you're not disallowing D'kora EMP with Aux2Bat cooldown reduction. The devs have acknowledged this as a bug, just not a very important one that is worth their time to fix.
Neither of these issues are huge as I'm sure people understood what you meant with the Seggis doff, and there's only 1 person I'm aware of that uses the D'kora EMP bug, but ya never know...

Thank you for the information.
Will change that with Scramble Sensors.
As D'Kora EMP,yes i know it is bug,etc...but now when we have already 10 fleet ready for tournament.
Don't want to do too much tournament rule changes anymore,because that might then pull fleets off.
So it stays for this tournament,but if we plan to organize another tournament(and we plan if this one goes well),then yea we won't put it as rule then.
As for 2nd team,yes you can enter with 2nd team and they will fight seperatly(apoligies for my wording,english is not my mother language).
I know Jupiter Force and UFP have 2 teams and will be fighting seperate.
Also this how would look tournament elimination with fleets having 2 teams.
Is the time for this tourney 4 PM EST or 4 PM US-Eastern? I thought they were the same, but I'm getting different results depending on if I use EST or US-Eastern time zone based on the Time Zone Converter website.
04:00:00 p.m. Saturday June 7, 2014 in EST converts to
05:00:00 p.m. Saturday June 7, 2014 in US/Eastern
Daylight Saving Time is not in effect on this date/time in EST
Daylight Saving Time is in effect on this date/time in US/Eastern
Apparently, EST is not affected by daylight savings where US-Eastern is. Not sure which one you meant and I'm not sure what BST is either.

It's 4PM EST(eastern standard time) or 4PM EDT(eastern daylight time)
Thats when our weekend events always start,so both Europeans and Americans can play together.
We also like to call it "After STOked Radio show".
BST is Brittish Standard Time,replacement for GMT.
Congratulations to the Hobos for the well deserved 1st place and to all the fleet who participated!
And special thanks to the hosts, you really did a great job, especially considering that it was your first attempt at hosting such an event. Keep it up!
Thanks to Jupiter Force for hosting and to all of the other fleets who showed up to play, we had some great games and a lot of fun. I'd play another JF-hosted tourney any time.
Thanks Jupiter Force for hosting a great tourney. Even though I couldn't make it, I heard lots of positive things about it and I even got to watch some of the matches that you posted on Twitch, and I must say that commentator on the videos is amazing! Great job with that and the tourney as a whole.
One thing I noticed the announcer say was that because the time had reached the 30 minute limit, that the next kill would win the match, but the score was like 7 or 8 to 1. If the team that was behind would have got the next kill, having them win the match 2-8 doesn't seem quite fair to me. Maybe for next time (I really hope there is a next time) you could only do sudden death if the score is tied. Otherwise, if the time limit is reached, whoever is currently in the lead should be declared victorious.

@DevolvedOne
Don't forget to inform your teammates to join JF Inter Fleet channel.
Re-Edit your post in case you guys finallized your 5-man team,so i can do that on our forums.:)
Also today until 4PM EST(9PM BST),fleets can still sign up,after that it gets closed.
JF Inter Fleet
Some others had problems,but they got in.
since it seems that indeed some teams signed up for this tournament, Inner Circle will throw the hat into the ring.
Our actual line-up will depend on what members will be available on saturday.
Inner Circle team members (this is an excerpt, all Inner Circle members are eligible to join):
- @ilhansk (person of contact)
- @usshannibal (person of contact)
- @Syncotron
- @Dxxdavid
- @Minitrckin08
- @sleeperdemon
- @ParisofAlexandria
- @baukl0tz
- @shane12088
- @DarkStar2345
- etc.
Dependending on the level of interest Inner Circle might field two teams.
Thank you all who signed up for tournament.
